FOR t®SS it Man Must Fight With 200,030 Different Kinds of Insects. Remarkable Reckoners. Occasionally we hear of .'persons with a remarkable gift for "doing sums in their heads,' They can multiply and divide and find roots of high num- 'Jb.ers withoutapparent effort. The ca1- culators themselves do not under - Mena how they do it. They are just corn that wan. One of the most remarkable of these lightning calculators was Zerah=Col- burn, born in 1804. Colburn could multiply two four -figure numbers in ;stagily. During a test he multiplied eightbe itself sixteen times and gave 'the answer in a few seconds, He could And square roots and cube -roots of large nembers automatically. Another famous • calculator was G. P. Bidder, a civil engineer, Ile was neatened against Colburu on one oc- easien, and beat him easily. When only nine years old, Bidder was asked: If the distance of the moon from the earth were 125,266 miles, and sauna i travels at the rate of four mles a min- ute, how long would it take the noise of the Battle of Waterloo to reaph the moon? In less than a minute lie gage the correct answer: twenty-one days nine hours thirty-four minutes. Perhaps the best-known of modern calculators is Jacques Inaude who WAS bore, 1018611 Bland' hos little lntereet in anythl7ag but numbers.

Dazed by multiplied misfortunes, Job cried: "Why is light given to a man whose way le hid, and whom God hath hedged in?" His knowledge of God failed to gear up with bis e iperi- ences. As -farmer, stock raiser, hus- band, father, neighbor, his reseed wee, above reproach. Yet his greet thoughts, wise plana, fine impulses, noble aspirations had failed of. fruition. Here he was robbed and sick, home- less, criticized, betrayed. Why? Many a farmer is conscious of inner light that does not brighten his way. 20 advances' on a great purpose and Is met by a hedge. Olio failure is less disheartening than failure of Ideals. Lack of reward for industry In bis, fields does mot parch' his soul as lack of spiritual fruitage in his family does.

Another proposal which the sub- committee put'forward would equalize the number of days to each of the tour quarters of the year by an ar- rangenient whereby the firet two mouths of every, quarter shall contain thirty days, and the third month thirty -ono. The extra day would be added to the beginning of January, and would prob ably be known as January 0th. Or it might be added to one of the thirty - day months, the quarter In which it fell having one thirty -day month only.
